    image.jpeg What's going on here? Why's the brake shoe sticking out past the drum?

    Usually when that happens S-cam bushings are the problem. .

    I looked at the inside drum surface just above the pads on the far left wheels and yes the pads are out, either its your axle bearings ready to or the cams are bad.

    Back to the drums. Did you glaze the #### things or are they just rusted?

    On second thought, editing... you too much cracking on the outside of that drum there. IMHO.. too much.

    That trailer's been sitting for about 2 months. I noticed this when I looked under there for wheel seal leaks.
